Job Description:

Crusoe is scaling rapidly, and the services that power our corporate functions—from financial and legal services to human resources and travel—are more critical than ever. We are looking for a strategic and analytical Director of Procurement to build, own, and execute the sourcing strategy for these essential categories. In this role, you will be a key business partner to our corporate leaders, responsible for delivering value, mitigating risk, and ensuring we have the right supplier relationships to support our ambitious growth.

  • Partner closely with the Procurement Shared Services team to enforce and drive adoption of the organization's procurement policy and financial control framework
  • Enforce strict financial controls and documented sourcing practices for high-value expenditures
  • Lead, hire, mentor, and manage a high-performing team of Category Managers and Specialists
  • Cultivate strong, collaborative relationships with internal business leaders
  • Use influence and internal partnership to drive solutions for systemic issues that extend beyond Procurement

Requirements:

  • Bachelor's degree in Supply Chain Management, Business, Finance, or a related field along with 10–12 years of progressive experience in Corporate Procurement, Strategic Sourcing, or Supply Chain Management
  • 5+ years in category management or procurement, with a focus on indirect or corporate services
  • A history of developing and executing category strategies that deliver measurable cost savings and service improvements
  • Strong skills in contract negotiation and supplier relationship management (SRM)
  • Excellent problem-solving abilities, with deep experience in spend analysis
  • Exceptional ability to build relationships, manage expectations, and influence at all levels of the organization
  • Hands-on experience with procure-to-pay (P2P) systems, such as Coupa

Nice to have:

  • Experience in a high-growth technology or startup environment
  • Deep expertise in one or more specific categories (e.g., professional services, facilities, enterprise technology)
  • MBA or a relevant professional certification (e.g., CPSM)
What we offer:
  • Restricted Stock Units in a fast growing, well-funded technology company
  • Health insurance package options that include HDHP and PPO, vision, and dental for you and your dependents
  • Employer contributions to HSA accounts
  • Paid Parental Leave
  • Paid life insurance, short-term and long-term disability
